I shall not want.

When Noah's father
died in November,

:58:05
the house
was all he had.

:58:07
He leadeth me down...
:58:27
In time, Noah
finished the house.

:58:30
Okay, smile.
Here we go.

:58:35
He took a good look
at what he had accomplished,

:58:37
got rip-roaring drunk
for 10 days,

:58:40
thought seriously
about setting it on fire,

:58:44
then finally
put the house up for sale.

:58:46
I'm prepared
to offer you this much.

:58:50
He had a number
of interested buyers,

:58:52
but he always found a reason
not to sell it to them.

:58:54
No.
:58:56
Either the bids
were too low,

:58:58
or if they met
his asking price,

:59:00
he felt it was worth
a lot more.

:59:03
It's a lot of money,
but I'll take it.

:59:09
$50,000.
:59:11
- That's more than my asking price.
- That's right.

:59:14
It's a great deal more.
:59:20
He told the man that offered him
$5,000 over his price

:59:23
that no one in his right mind
would do that

:59:26
and he wouldn't have
a lunatic living in his house.

:59:31
He worked out his frustration with life
on the creek every morning.

:59:37
And in the evenings,
to temper the sting of loneliness,

:59:41
there was Martha Shaw.
:59:43
Martha was a war widow
:59:45
who lived in Quail Ridge,
a town away.

:59:52
So you want to go out
tomorrow?

:59:55
I got to work.
:59:57
Well, we could
down to the river if you want to.

:59:59
Next week, sometime.
